I used to talk to dogs all of the time at home.

[whydogs]

What did they have to say?

[rightfoot]

...Nothing special. They just talk the same way you or I would talk.

Hello, how are you?
Hello, friend.

That sort of thing. Why would you think they're any different?

[whydogs]

Just curious. Different worlds, and all.

But the ones you know sound pretty similar to mine.

[rightfoot]

...Why are you asking if they say the same things of yours?

Does any of it make sense to you? I'm trying to see what the dogs here are like.

[taciturnly]

Your purpose?

[whydogs]

Dogs back home can talk and have jobs.

But they're a pain in the ass to talk to.

I could make the attempt.

You're not sure?

Well, I imagine they're quite a lot like other animals, I've just never talked to one before...

[whydogs]

Wish I could say the same.

I can talk to my hyenas. They even answer back sometimes

not sure if they count though

[whydogs]

I say it counts.

What kind of conversations do you all have?

[long_live_the_queen]

"don't attack Maria's horse" "what's in your mouth" "do you understand" "who's been by lately"

Sometimes they answer back right

sometimes they get stuck on saying yes-no a lot because they know it annoys me

or they get too excited when I'm going to feed them and just make squealing noises instead of words

[whydogs]

They already sound more interesting than the dogs I dealt with back home.

[scatmaam]

Technically



you talk to one every day.

[whydogs]

Holy shit does that make me a dog fucker, too.

[scatmaam]

I ought to put that whip tongue of yours to better use.

[whydogs]

You have my attention.

[trusttheshovel]

prob things like "give me treats" or "play with me" something like that i imagine.


buuut i don't rly speak dogs.

[whydogs]

You still got it right. The ones back home said that a lot.

[trusttheshovel]

[...]

um... just to be extra sure

you mean like they barked that a lot or actually said words?

[whydogs]

Both.

You could say that they were both really smart and really dumb at the same time.
